Very pleased with this sighting today, even more pleased to have caught it on camera.

Typically very shy this bird was not singing (when they do you know they are there even if you can’t see them) but occasionally giving an alarm call and popping in into brief sight low in the bankside vegetation. I watched it (or more precisely the vegetation where it was last seen) for at least 30 minutes and had maybe four or five sightings of no more than a few seconds each but it made a cold day very worthwhile.
